Hey, any interest in doing the KFOG football pool again this year? If so, first game is tomorrow night, so we should get moving.


OK, I started a group for us, just in case anyone is into it.

The Group Code Number is: 1391
The Group Password is: tambourine

Anyone have emails for airbrush or rastermon? Or Mark's bro Chris?


I just entered, and I'd like to suggest we start a separate thread for this.



good idea!

I signed up -- my first year, actually -- and here be da pix:

 NE  WAS  CIN  DEN  BUF  CAR  KC  SEA  MIN  PIT  NYG  DAL  GB  STL  IND  PHI  41  

Gaz, we're identical except for 2 and the tie-breaker.


Yep, thanks for taking care of that, guys! I figured if it caught on we should make it a separate thread. So be it! (I'll post my picks later.)

Looks like they have updated the app KFOG's using to track their entries too--you can look ahead to future weeks' games, and one assumes, look back too.

LOL! No, I'm just an idiot-idiot.

But, I must say- I admire the costumed creativity of Raiders fans.

Roger McGuinn is on KFOG right now, very interesting.  He kicked it off by playing a very nice version of "Turn, Turn, Turn".

Get this, he has glaucoma!  How could that be possible?  You'd think all those guys from the 60's would be immune.

Ah, crap. Just catching up on posts here and such (was off work yesterday, but ended up staying in town--long story, will tell you later).

Anyway, I went over to DM's blog page to see what he'd posted lately, and there's a big picture of a can of Spam on a beach in Hawaii and the notation "On Vacation-be back Monday 9-19." So I guess looks like Dave's gonna be sucking up Mai Tais in Maui and I'm SOL for a birthday set this year. It should have been this coming Friday. Damn.

Was the Flamin' Groovies' "Shake Some Action" '75 or '76?  That one needs to be in the set.


Worry not. It is--1976.

1975, you could go with Dwight Twilley's "I'm on Fire," though its borderline-Katrina status makes it a question mark.

For '71, I like the "Ride a White Swan" suggestion, though Dave might be more amenable to "Jeepster."


For some reason, Twilley just doesn't ring with me as a power-pop tune. Besides, it's one of the many tunes on the aforementioned Rhino collections, which I am trying to draw from only sparingly. But Mike's suggestion of the Pilot tune might work, indeed.

And I'll look at the T.Rex catalog--I can't recall Ride a White Swan off the top of my head, but it might be a good candidate, ditto Jeepster.

For a bit I considered doing a latter-day power pop set (late 80s and 90s, stuff like Velvet Crush, Matthew Sweet, Jellyfish, the dBs, Honeydogs, Brilliant Mistakes, to name a few) but I figured most of those bands are things few Fogheads would recognize and would lessen my chances of getting my set played.

Dunno if it was deliberate, but they followed today's discussion (with Krukow) of the Giants/Barry Bonds with "Tales of Brave Ulysses". LOL!

Grace Slick Alert!!!

She'll be on the KFOG morning show this coming Fri, Oct 7th. Not sure what she's plugging. Set yer alarm, Gaz.

Speaking of morning show guests, remember during the brouhaha over Steve Earle's Chevy commercial, when Fogheads were giving their opinions?  Peter said "He'll be in town soon and he'll be up here, so we'll be sure to ask him about it." Well... he's in town this week for The Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival and he doesn't seem to have scheduled a visit to KFOG. He must REALLY not wanna talk about that damn commerical.  :wink:

OOH!  Good lookin' out - thanks!  My bet is that she's got a new art exhibit.  Unless she's actually going to be a part of that Oct. 30 fest, which I highly doubt.  What time should I tune in -- 6am PST/9am EST?  I'll be up early Friday morning anyway, as I have an extra double-shift at the Voice (since Columbus Day is a holiday for the paper, we have to close next week's issue early).

It's hard to say... their scheduling always baffles me (I've often missed interesting stuff because it aired betw 7 & 7:30 when I'm on BART). So I'd be there from the beginning to make sure.

Bad news: I wasn't able to connect to KFOG online last night or this morning.  Either streamaudio is fucked up, or my computer is (and there's reason to think the latter; I got a new printer and its software hasn't been playing nicely with my antiquated computer).  Anyone know if streamaudio is down?

P.S.  WDRV isn't working for me either.

If neither is working, then it's probably you.  I'm getting KFOG fine; I switched from the Peak because they were doing 10 by U2 and I didn't really care.

But re: Grace, no mention of her was made on the Morning Show -- Tommy Chong's the big (?) guest today. So she musta cancelled.

He apparently got lost & hasn't shown up yet.  Dave just asked Irish Greg if they could still bring Chong up at least for a minute to autograph his Bobby Taylor & The Vancuovers record.
